Chapter 13: Xiao Ling Struggles to Give Up the Proud Chef (I)
Su Yang'er saw that Xiaoling had not returned for a long time, so she walked out of the door and swept around.
The people of Su Mansion are also counter men, and after finishing the housekeeping in the morning, they will go to the store to help, leaving at most one or two men on standby in the house, and without Uncle Wang's orders, they are not allowed to approach the West Chamber, of course, Su Yang'er is not allowed to see them rashly.
At this moment, even these two men didn't know where to hide, seeing that the courtyard was empty, Su Yang'er had a general peek into the environment of Su Mansion yesterday, and at this time remembered that the kitchen was behind the rockery in the southwest corner, and now she no longer cared about the rules and regulations that bound her, and decided to find Xiaoling in person.
It's the rising day, and she's not very worried about Xiaoling, but she's really hungry.
When she walked to the rockery with her memory, she smelled the smell of stove smoke, she knew that she remembered correctly, and when she wanted to bypass the rockery, she heard Xiaoling's voice in front of the kitchen door.
"Brother Yangbao, don't worry, the little lady treats me very well now, last night she also said that she wanted to be a sister with me for life, and she will definitely agree to take you with her."
As soon as Xiao Ling's voice fell, a male voice immediately sounded, and the voice seemed to be a teenager's voice.
"Xiaoling, I'm not worried about this, I've been working in the Su family for half a year, but I haven't seen your little lady once, don't you still get paid, my brother has this craft, and he won't starve to death anywhere."
"When the time comes, I will find a nearby teahouse and wine shop to work, and when I have saved enough money, I will come to ransom you with her, but it is a pity that I will not be able to see you every day like now."
"Brother Yang Bao, you are so nice... I'll definitely think of taking you with me, if she doesn't agree, little lady... I... I just..."Xiao Ling was obviously emotional at the moment, and her voice trembled slightly.
"Brother Yang Bao?" When Su Yang'er behind the rockery heard this, her heart suddenly dawned: "I said why didn't she come back for so long, it turned out that she was hiding here to meet her lover." ”
At that moment, she no longer hid, but went straight out and asked, "What about you?" ”
"Little lady, why are you here!" Seeing her suddenly appear, Xiao Ling was really startled and hurriedly walked over.
But Su Yang'er looked at the strange young man in front of the door, but saw that this young man was wearing a round-necked Ge Shan, with a half-hung waist and a short beat, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, although he was not tall, he looked like a powerful force, and a pair of big hands were very thick.
At this time, Yang Bao also looked at Su Yang'er in a daze, he had long heard that the pearl of Sufu was famous abroad, but it was a pity that although he was in Sufu, he was a foreign long-term worker, and he had never seen this beautiful girl, and this side was worthy of his reputation, but his amazing look was just a flash, and he immediately put it back on Xiaoling.
At this time, Xiao Ling hurriedly said to Su Yang'er: "Little lady, this is... Brother Yang Bao. ”
On the side, Yang Bao immediately answered: "Yang Bao has seen the little lady. ”
Su Yang'er saw the expressions of these two like a pair of "dog men and women" who were caught and raped in bed, and couldn't help laughing: "You are Ling'er's sweetheart?" ”
"Little lady..."Xiao Ling on the side immediately blushed when she heard this, and couldn't help but pull Su Yang'er's sleeve.
And Yang Baoxian heard from Xiaoling that she knew about the relationship between the two of them, and when she asked at this time, although she was a little surprised, she was not afraid to say: "Yes, I am not in love with Xiaoling for a day or two, you and Ling'er are like sisters, I think she has already told you." ”
"This man is a man who dares to do things."
Su Yang'er saw that this cook was so frank, and she looked a little different for a while.
"Little lady, since you are here, then Yang Bao has something to ask for, and I hope you can fulfill it."
"Brother Yang Bao..." Xiao Ling winked at him when she heard this, signaling him not to say any more, but Yang Bao's raised hand refused to let go.
"Xiaoling, you just let him speak." Seeing this, Su Yang'er became interested, and Xiao Ling revealed her love affair to her in the bathroom yesterday, and Su Yang'er obviously knew about it for a long time, and did not interfere with it, but seemed to acquiesce.
Su Yang'er was still like this in the past, and now she naturally won't interfere with this kind of "free love".
"Yangbao heard that the little lady is planning to move south, and I want to ask you to keep Yangbao and move to Xinfu with you."
"Oh, it's a good thing, I've sent it to the door." Su Yang'er was secretly happy when she heard this, she was thinking about moving south with the chefs in the house yesterday, originally because these two cooks were free, and it was not up to her to decide whether to stay or not, but she didn't expect one of them to be sent to the door by herself today.
For the pursuit of eating, Su Yang'er naturally will not give up, she has now become this delicate "ghost", the amount of food is small, but the appetite is very large, and being able to eat better is the only comfort for her.
But now that Yang Bao came to beg her, she couldn't write this enthusiasm on her face, and said quietly: "Yes, but the dishes you cook are not as delicious as those made by another cook, and besides, you alone can't be busy, you have to help me ask him if he is willing to stay." ”
Su Yang'er hadn't actually tasted Yang Bao's craftsmanship, but the green vegetable tofu soup made by the chef named "Little Second Brother" yesterday was still fresh in her memory, and she said this just to provoke him and let Yang Bao help keep Xiao Er.
Unexpectedly, Yang Bao smiled when he heard this: "You are talking about Xiao Er, he is my apprentice, so he naturally wants to go with me." ”
"Your apprentice?" Su Yang'er was stunned when she heard this, she clearly remembered that yesterday Xiaoling said that the two of them would have different dishes, not that this Yang Bao would cook southern food, and that Xiao Er would cook northern food, why did he become his apprentice again now?
"I Yang Bao twelve-year-old went out to learn art, in order to learn a dish, willing to travel thousands of miles to the Central Plains to seek a teacher, has been five years, if it is not exhausted, into your house to do half a year of long work, met Ling'er, do not want to leave, this time Bianliang Duzhong, the imperial kitchen should also have my name, Xiao Er only learned my less than half successful husband, he can't do all the northern dishes, I didn't expect to teach the apprentice to starve to death of the master..."
"Brother Yang Bao, the little lady has already promised you, so don't say it again."
Xiao Ling, who had been silent on the side, saw that he was arrogant, so she hurriedly interrupted him for fear of angering Su Yang'er.
"Hey, it's really self-defeating, I'll still believe half of Xiaoling's words in the future."
Su Yang'er knew that she was self-defeating, although she also understood the truth of being a champion in her own right, but this Yang Bao revealed a sense of arrogance in her bones, as if he had stayed in Su Mansion and succumbed to talent, which still made her a little unhappy.
"Hmph, what's the big deal, isn't it just a cook, and I won't eat without you?" Su Yang'er secretly slandered herself in her heart, and said lukewarmly on her pretty face: "Since this is the case, then it will trouble Master Yangbao." ”
"Well, little lady, Yangbao has one more thing to ask for here."
"Anything else?" Su Yang'er, who was already disgusted by his arrogance, frowned and said, "What else do you have to do?" ”
"Little lady, when Yang Bao saves enough money, can I redeem Ling'er's freedom for you, Yang Bao will buy her back, and I will definitely treat her well."
"Let's talk about it when you have money!"
"Ling'er, go and bring the porridge he made, let's go!"
Su Yang'er's tone suddenly became unkind when she heard this, first, she hated Yang Bao's unruliness, and second, the remaining male possessiveness in her heart, Xiaoling was the woman closest to her at the moment after all.
And the most important point is that Yang Baoshi only used the word "buy", which shows that although he likes Xiaoling, like most men at this time, he only treats her as an item that can be bought and sold.
Xiao Ling didn't know why Su Yang'er suddenly started a fire, she just thought that Yang Bao had collided with her, so she hurriedly brought the porridge that had been prepared and left with her, only to quietly glance at Yang Bao who was full of shock when she was leaving.
On the way, Xiaoling whispered: "I'm sorry, little lady, I..."
"You are really inhumane of the opposite sex, I love you in vain!" Su Yang'er was also a little annoyed at this time, and blurted out without thinking.
"Is there the opposite sex but not humanity?" Xiao Ling was stunned for a moment, and asked as she walked, "Little lady, what do you mean by this?" ”
"It means that your mind is full of men, and you don't care about me at all."
"I... I don't, I..." Xiao Ling didn't speak indirectly for a while, she only felt embarrassed, speaking of which Su Yang'er could allow her and Yang Bao to have an open and private meeting in the mansion, which was already magnanimous, and when Su's father was alive, the two would never dare to do this.
"I'd like to get a taste of what this guy is doing, and see why he's so arrogant."
It's a god chef, it's pretending, you can know it when you try it.
At that moment, Su Yang'er, who was disgruntled, walked to the house with Xiao Ling, and Xiao Ling silently put the porridge and a stack of small pickles made by Yang Bao on the table.
